I was intrigued by this film, due to some reviews I read here at IMDb. Apparently, I read the wrong reviews.The film isn't "bad", it's actually technically executed very well.
The acting is actually quite convincing, with specific props to Andrew Rizzo, who plays the group's leader. He manages to balance what seems like underlying malice with a "Hey, it's all cool" attitude.
There's a building feeling of dread as the film progresses and then things very interesting (sound like most found footage films you've seen?)
In the closing scenes of the film, things get very, very strange and the tension level rises considerably when things start going south rapidly.
And just as we think we're about to see the big reveal: Nothing. Nada.
Just as with so many of these FF films, we're left to wonder what the hell just happened and what we've just spent 90 mins watching.
Only questions, no answers.
I scored this film a 4 based on it's technical competence. That said, I've seen better films that lacked the technical prowess of this film because they actually told me a story with a plausible ending.
